We enable auto-firewall which really makes our life easy by dealing with firewall rules for LAN targets (more on that later). In this example, we have the WAN on eth0 and LAN on eth1. Then use commit and save to make the config live and save it to /config. Then use commands like set port-forward auto-firewall enable or set port-forward rule 1 forward-to address 192.168.0.10 to actually set the settings. Whereas in the past you’d need to manually create NAT mappings and firewall rules (as per here), the EdgeRouter now has made it significantly easier with even automatic firewall rules.Īs a reminder, to actually set settings on the router, switch to configuration mode, configure. Port forwardingĪs of 1.4, Ubiquiti added the non-Vayatta config of port-forward. Use the Wizards on the 1.6 Web UI to get an initial configuration that can actually route something. This will get you up to speed with all the latest Web UI (which is still heavily limited). When you buy and receive yours, plug into Port 0, assign yourself a Static IP, and use the https Web UI to upload the latest version of their firmware (which is 1.6 as of this writing). Oddly enough, they don’t document anything they do, so you’re stuck reading release notes and harassing the employees that troll the forums.Ī great way to get started is to read the EdgeOS CLI Primer and the Basic System docs. A lot of help is available on their community page. So to learn about how this thing works, you’ll need to read pages upon pages of documentation from the old Vyatta docs keeping in mind the Ubnt has modified a bunch of stuff too. It uses a forked version of the opensourced edition of Vyatta 6.3 (now maintained as VyOS post their acquisition by Brocade). Instructions should be similar if not identical for the EdgeRouter-X.Ī Challenger Appears! and it’s only $100! Getting goingįirst off, like I mentioned, this thing is only really configurable via commandline. Today, they have an even cheaper version of it, for $50! The EdgeRouter-X.įor this article, we’re going to configure the EdgeRouter Lite for home-use. A 3 port, gigabit-capable router, that can really only be configured by commandline. Being a huge fan of networking equipment, I decided to buy their cheapest router (at the time), the EdgeMAX EdgeRouter Lite. I’m actually quite surprised how UBNT is able to do all the things they do… I couldn’t support them more.Īfter finding out about them from MonkeyBrains, I looked through their product line to be quite surprised at the feature sets, yet still low cost. They fit in my favorite category of companies: they make high quality products that cost nothing compared to the old-boys-club equivalents. I’ve gotten a new, inexplicable, love for Ubiquiti.
